Actually I believe that having both a backspace and a delete key is confusing in the original wordprocessing meaning; why would one want to delete a character following the cursor?
Personally I've been living without one for years now and I'm not missing it except when some UI designers think that the delete key is more straight forward than the backspace key and unfortunately mapped some often used function to it like deleting mail....
slowly i learn how to use the delete key. i would not miss it.
typewriters had only a backspace key. many a fine document has been typed without one.
